Wendy Hunter, representing Portillo’s before the Fishers City Council, was asked when residents can expect the Chicago-based eatery to open.  If you approve this rezoning, Hunter said, she will announce the opening date in a week and a half (from March 20th).

After hearing that, council members quickly acted to approve the rezoning of the property the restaurant plans to use in constructing their new building, to be located on the southeast corner of Interstate-69 and 116th Street.

Council members all said their constituents have been more excited about the possibility of Portillo’s coming to Fishers than most any other city project.  Based on the council’s Monday night action, those constituents will soon know when Portillo’s will be open in Fishers.
